We have one youth show , but we decided to not go. Hubby doesnt want me on the interstate by my self right now with all the crazyness, and raod blocking going on.

For now, untill we can afford a proper small trailer that I can tow with my SUV . We are just going to use our livestock trailer , and make double trips with the truck back and forth from the fair , to drive the sheep there, and also the RV. We are not willing to put more money in to this...

Oh , I am so excited I can hardly contain it lol :celebrate I have two Ewes that are currently making their way up here from Kansas. We decided that since we were not showing, we would invest in more breeding stock. One is a Ewe lamb by a sire that I have been wanting to add to my flock for a...

It had alot to do with towing weight. I can only tow 3500lbs. So unless I could find a small stock trailer like a feather light for under 3k this was my option. There was other contributing factors , but that was the main one. I have a large 16 foot stock trailer that our truck tows, but the...

Yes, I would usually agree but in this case I already have 2 cows and soon a pig in my freezer. So I dont really need the meat, it would just be a little added bonus. I would rather sell him and put that money towards hay for the winter.

Thank You everyone for your input it helps a lot when you have other people looking and contributing ideas 😊

This is the ram lamb in question lol This was a month and a half ago, he is bigger now. But i think he looks ok. If someone wanted him for their herd I would even let him go with his papers for a little bit more.

exactly what I wondered. I mean i know I dont have an established customer base, and Im kind of new to the business. But I have good solid lambs that are large and healthy. The stuff that is going for 150$ they are under weight and look sick and boney. Why should I let my good quality go for...

Well, other meat lamb producers are selling them for around 300. So I figured pricing at 250 was fairly reasonable. Lamb is extremely expensive here.

Live, I have been asking 250, and am willing to negotiate. If they offered 200 I would take it. They want them for 150. and at that much I'll just put it in my own freezer .

yes, very true

What do you all typically sell your meat lambs for? I have had a lot of inquiries about the couple that I have for sale, and when I tell them the price, they run away. Trying to figure out if people in my area are cheap, or I am asking way to much.

My oldest and his ewe lamb. I just LOVE her.

Thank You ! We just love him and what he is producing so far. Fingers crossed he has some fall lambs on the way.

Not sure, it popped up when I was looking for ideas. It looks like the same size as a typical horse trailer window. It was on a website for horse trailer parts.

What about something like this?

Agreed, I definitely want more vents, but I'm not sure what kind? How do I get maximum air flow. I thought about those horse trailer fans...but I dont know if it would solve much.

He was under a year old in that picture, i am really please with how he is turning out, and the lambs he is producing. Here is now, he will be two in Feb.

The two small black vents is what i assume you are talking about? one is near the floor, the other is up by the roof. The one near the floor is at the very back of the trailer not near exhaust but I do understand your point. Yeah, its definitely not a concern of theirs but we did make sure to...

That sounds much more appealing, I was gonna sit back there my self on a hot day while hubby pulls me around:lol:
